Im looking for info on the banjo axles and transfer case
Just bought a set with a t case and was looking to replace seals and whatnot
Also was wondering if someone could post a pic of the original yoke that goes on the cckw gmc transfer case[/img]

From memory: There is a flange that comes in from the tranny and U-joint yokes on the front and lower rear and the top rear (parking brake) is a flange also.
Rebuild is easy: throw parts at it. No adjustment. The hardest part is keeping the needle bearings in place which can be done with gravity and grease.
If you are using the original seals, soak them in warm motor oil for a few hours before installing to loosen them up..
thanks

Frank Von Rosenstiel is in Ontario, fairly close to you.
He advertizes in Military Vehicle Magazine and in Supply Line
He specializes in CCKW and has a lot of NOS stuff.
He offers full Seal kits for most drive train items.
You can find the NAPA part numbers for most of what you need on this site.But it may be much easier for you to get the kits from Frank.
I can't help you on the linkage items , but I sure some users on this site will .

Buy the manual. Either the earliet TM10 or the later specific TM9 powertain manual, not the TM9-80n
They will tell you everything you need to know. Like I said, the banjo xfer is pretty much stoopid proof. The axles at the ends are easy with just a simple adjustment. If you get into the ring and pinion, they get a more complex to adjust.
Good luck

im looking for 20x10 wheels to fit these axles anyone know where i can get some
i have heard some of these trucks came back in the day with 20x10 ?

The original wheels are I believe 20X6.5
Several WW2 era vehicles used the same wheels
I am not familiar with the 20X10 wheels
DUKW wheels are 18X ? and will fit with the adapters is this what you mean?
Reprinted manuals are avail thru Potrayal Press
Hope this helps
